TRU
Precious Metals Reports Additional Drill Results at Twilite Gold
Project
and
Prepares for Drilling at Golden Rose Project
Fredericton, New
Brunswick – September 15, 2021 -- InvestorsHub NewsWire
-- TRU
Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV:TRU; OTCQB:TRUIF; FSE:706) ("TRU" or the
"Company")
is pleased
to announce additional assays from its 12-hole, Phase 1 diamond
drilling program at its 100%-owned Twilite Gold Project in the
Central Newfoundland Gold Belt ("Twilite Gold''). The Company is
also providing an update on drilling preparations at its flagship
Golden Rose Project ("Golden Rose"), also in the Central
Newfoundland Gold Belt located along the deposit-bearing Cape Ray –
Valentine Lake Shear Zone.
Highlights from the
latest batch of Twilite Gold drill results (Tables 1 and 2)
include:
-
6.00 metres (m) grading
1.06 grams per ton (g/t) gold (Au) in drill hole
TL-21-18.
-
3.00m grading 0.85 g/t Au
in drill hole TL-21-20.
-
Robust shear zone hosted
quartz breccia system remains open along strike in all
directions.
Barry
Greene, VP of Property Development and Director of TRU, commented:
"The strength of the alteration, brecciation and mineralization
remains intact as the gold system is continuing to the southeast.
As is common, structural complexities play a part in the
distribution of gold as the gold zone is deeper than expected. We
are working to determine if this is an offset or part of a separate
zone."

TRU Co-Founder and CEO
Joel Freudman added: "We are pleased that
we continue to encounter gold mineralization in the results from
our recently-completed inaugural drill program, and we look forward
to the remaining results, which will guide future drilling at
Twilite Gold. I am even more excited about our imminent 5,000-metre
diamond drill program at our flagship Golden Rose Project - with
permitting now in hand, drilling will soon be a reality. Over the
past 4 months, our team has worked ardently in preparation. Golden
Rose represents a unique opportunity for TRU for numerous reasons,
with the key drivers being that it is well-situated both
geologically and geographically, sandwiched between two neighbours
with significant known gold deposits."
Golden Rose
Drilling Preparations
At Golden Rose, drill
permitting is now in place and a drill contract has been awarded to
Logan Drilling Limited for a planned 5,000m diamond drilling
campaign, scheduled to begin in early to mid-October. The Company
is working closely with GoldSpot Discoveries Corp. in laying out
and targeting its drill program.
TRU's main
objectives for this drill program are (1) infill drilling at the
South Woods Lake Gold Zone, to better delineate the known
mineralization there, and (2) exploratory drilling at the
recently-optioned King George IV claims in hopes of making a new
discovery there, following the Company's discovery of visible gold
grains on such claims this summer, as previously announced on July
14, 2021.
As additional preparatory
steps, the Company recently completed a 1,568 line-kilometer
airborne magnetic gradiometer survey over select portions of Golden
Rose, including the King George IV claims. The Company is also
preparing for an IP/Resistivity survey at the King George IV
claims.
Drilling
Quality Assurance/Quality Control ("QA/QC")
All NQ core is sampled,
cut by core saw, and split by Company personnel, and put into bags
with unique sample tags for identification. The bags are sealed
with a security tag and are then transported directly to the lab by
TRU staff. All rock samples are analyzed at Eastern Analytical Ltd.
("Eastern Analytical") of 403 Little Bay Road, Springdale, NL, a
commercial laboratory that is ISO/IEC 17025 accredited and
independent of TRU. Eastern Analytical pulverized 1000 grams of
each sample to 95% < 89 µm. Samples are analyzed using fire
assay (30g) with AA finish and an ICP-34, four acid digestion
followed by ICP-OES analysis. All samples with visible gold or
assaying above 1.00 g/t Au are further assayed using metallic
screen to mitigate the presence of the nugget effect of coarse
gold. Standards and blanks are inserted at defined intervals for
QA/QC purposes by the Company as well as Eastern Analytical. The
TRU exploration program design is consistent with industry best
practices and the program is carried out by qualified persons
employing a QA/QC program consistent with National Instrument
43-101.
